The Electric Car -

They usually make some futuristic whirring sound - and they can't help but capture our attention and hold our awe and respect.
The electric-powered car may have seemed Sci-Fi and futuristic (and out of the reaches of reality) until just recently.
No longer is this just something seen in the movies! It's the real deal!
Several manufacturers have recently come "on the scene" to make the electric vehicle a reality. And while getting on the waiting list for one of these ready-made beauties may require a lot of effort (and can still be somewhat pricey), it is now possible for you to drive an all-electric car that doesn't need gasoline or any other fuel to provide it power!
The King of The Electrics
A small company by the name of Tesla Motors has moved to the forefront of revolutionary with their all electric vehicles, the Roadster Sport and Model S.
These all electrics have a range of up to 300 miles on one battery charge, the equivalent of 248 horsepower, can go 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds, they get up to 125 mph and are extremely sporty.
Currently, you can only find these in 2 places in California with another dealership that just opened in Chicago in Summer 2009 (and more dealerships on the way in the future).
If you'd like to check out their website, go to:
We haven't yet seen these machines in abundance everywhere we look, but the future looks extremely promising for this technology!
If you'd like to convert your old gas-guzzler to an all electric, I highly recommend Peter Millward's Electricity4Gas book. It's packed with some great information and plans to show you how to convert your gasoline vehicle to all electric with very easy-to-follow steps to get you up and running.
Or, check out our electric car conversions dealer page to find a location near you that will take your gasoline vehicle and convert it to an all-electric for you.
